snow is a reminder that we still live in nature and we still have to play by its rules.

I have developed a habit of saying “Don’t do that” to my television when something awkward/gross is happening. It’s sort of like if you caught a kid in the middle of coloring on the wall. You can see how much damage has been done already but it’s like…c’mon. Don’t do…that.

SUCH a good monologue
Kelly: So then the next movie moves to the top of the queue. So number five becomes number four, number six becomes number five, [Ryan checks his watch] number three becomes number two, etc, etc. And let’s just say that I just sent back Love Actually, which was awesome. [Karen lays money down on the desk next to Ryan] And they sent me Uptown Girls, which is also awesome. But guess what, now I want to see Love Actually again, [Phyllis throws her money down] but it’s at the bottom of the queue! Oh no, what do I do!? [Creed throws his money down] What I do, is this. I go online, I go click, click, click. And I change the order of the queue, so that I can see Love Actually [Pam throws her money down] as soon as I want to. It’s so easy, Ryan. Do you really not know how Netflix works? [Jim throws his money down]
Ryan: I guess I forgot. [kisses Kelly, gathers up all the money]
Kelly: You’re such a ditz.
Kevin: Ryan, well done. Two minutes, forty-two seconds. Additionally, Pam, you win ten because she said “awesome” 12 times, and Jim, you win five because she mentioned six romantic comedies.

Things that will make me tear up and make the same...
Dan in Real Life: When Dan realizes that he loves Marie, and his youngest daughter Lilly says, “Go.” Then…she hugs him and whispers in his ear, “Now.” I’m done. I was literally making the :C face. So underrated as a film. Edit: /obligatory

I don’t think it would be adventurous to say that…85% of my meals eaten at home involve only a spoon and a bowl. Cereal, soup, oatmeal; that’s about it. I eat bagels on plates/paper towels.

Buying an iPad in Boston is gonna be the worst.
sade: “Where are your iPads?” “Over here, did you want the Touch or the Classic?” “What? No. iPads.” “Yeah. iPods. Over here.” CONFUSION!

I know I shouldn’t look in other people’s windows or whatever, and karma will get me one day…but I feel a nice sense of confidence and reassurance when I look at pictures of you now. You are kind of getting a little round. You are in the same town we grew up in, and you will probably be there for the rest of your life. I’m sure you will do great things one day, but...

I volunteered at a Salvation Army event three years ago, and I put down my email address not thinking anything of it. Yet here we are, receiving monthly “Do-Gooder Gazettes” and similar emails. I want to unsubscribe but there is no link for me to cowardly follow. I think I would have to write to Ms. Shelby Moore and explain to her that I do not want to read the latest opportunities to...

Mail
So I’ve finally gotten around to utilizing the Mail application and I’ve set up my school/regular emails. I’ve deleted the old (verging on sentimental) ones and I want to get some new ones. If anyone feels like sending me an email, you should totally do it. Better not send me crap chain mails or spam, though. givemeapuppy [at] gmail [dot] com

George Lopez is so bad.
joaniepepperoni: Like, I can’t even…I just don’t even know. I used to be able to handle “The George Lopez Show”, mostly because I had fun trying to figure out the little Spanish phrases he would mutter quickly. But this whole “Lopez at Night” or whatever it’s called is BAD. His head has gotten a bit too big (pun intended) and I want him to go back to his...

Dilemma (feat. Kelly Rowlands)
After realizing that the thought of losing my really good street parking spot was crippling my life, I bought an overpriced parking pass. It was either that, or live in fear of getting mugged/having my car broken into and never driving my car unless it was absolutely dire (i.e. hospital, going home). So now I will be the free and proud owner of a stupid $301 sticker that allows me to come and go...

I am soooo thirsty right now, but Richmond’s tap water is terrible. It made me not want to drink water ever again, for fear that it would taste like that all the time. I need to get a water filtration system before my cells shrivel up and die. Also, eating ramen doesn’t help my case.

ATTENTION, PEOPLE OF RICHMOND
It’s going to be 60F and partly cloudy (but they used a sun instead of clouds, so maybe that means it will be mostly sunny?) on Tuesday. So there is no reason to not look cute on the first day of school. Do your hair, wear something you’ve been afraid to wear. You only get one first impression. Then you can slum it to class after that. Ummm, XOXO Gossip Girl?

An Ordinary Hero
lolliblog: Last Monday, Miep Gies died at the age of 100. Gies, along with her husband and several other others, hid Anne Frank and her family and four other Jews during the Nazi occupation of Amsterdam. Gies was also responsible for finding and preserving Anne Frank’s diary. Gies worked as a secretary for Otto Frank, Anne’s father. When the Nazis began deporting Jews to concentration camps,...
